So Like a Poet tree The Etheree You see before you Perhaps not as clever As I’d like it to be, but I still believe it’s pretty sly You have to admit it yourself, right? I mean come on. At least give me that. Please?...

Feathers spread As bobs the head The plummage tells the tail

And as the tern Begins to turn The path itself migrates

With eagle eye Do we both fly Staying abreast of all you do

As we lay bare Heirs to the air Their pecking order placed...

We’re supposed to be Booed up I should have known That wouldn’t be the case You’re so busy thinkin’ About you and them While you pretend we Will ever be an us What’s it like Having your love returned And not thrown away?

They stand at the ready Capable of dispensing such grace Consensually spilling So many secrets

Clear and to the point A fount of notion, knowledge, And communication Retention
